Son House - Empire State Express Lyrics

Lyrics Empire State Express - Son House



I went down to the station
I leaned against the door
I went down to the station
I leaned against the door
You know I know the Empire State
Any time I hear her blow
Then I ask the depot agent
Let me ride, let me ride the blind
I said i asked the depot agent
I said let me ride the blinds
He said I wouldn't mind it son
You know you got the money down
I asked the depot agent
What Time
What time
She's doing town
I asked the depot agent
And said what time she's doing town
Is that Antonio?
You got the lake your money is down
He said i have an empire state
She rides on the eastren
She rides on the eastern
Eastern Time
He said I have an Empire State
You know She runs on ester time
You know She is about
Rollingest baby that runs on New York central line
Engineers
I blow the whistle, old farmer around
Farmer'roun, around the bell
I said the engineers blow the whistle
I said the farmer only rung the bell
You know my woman was on board
And she's waving back farewell
There was a mean old farmer
A cruel engineer, a cruel engineer
I said a mean old farmer
I said a cruel old engineer
You know they took my women away
And left poor me slamming her
Yeah, i must tell you people
What a load on train
Load on train, oh ho
I said what a load on train
You know i have taken your woman away
Into the truck
You know when you go old
Your car got old
You won't got old
You won't got old
I said when you go old your car got old
I said you wanna got old quick
I know i have just the empire state
